Montreal Chiropractic Info: Chondroitin Sulfate for Diabetes Management

March 23, 2022

In the world of supplements, chondroitin sulfate is well-known for its benefit for cartilage and disc in Montreal back pain. Its reputation grows in influence on specific conditions from cancer to knee osteoarthritis to cells and nerves. Recent research demonstrates positive effects on diabetes and its related osteoporosis and inflammation. Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic reports on these new studies to assist our Montreal chiropractic back pain as well as diabetic patients. 

CHONDROITIN SULFATE: Diabetes and Inflammation

Chondroitin sulfate is powerful for diabetes in addition to disc nutrition. It’s reported that it can reduce blood glucose and reduce symptoms associated with diabetes. In new studies, it soothed diabetic osteoporosis and mended the microstructure of bone due to its anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and bone metabolism-regulating properties in diabetic rats. The research studies keep coming! A recent report states that these outcomes were obtained after 10 weeks of taking chondroitin sulfate, and serum inflammatory cytokines (TNF-A, IL-1, IL-6, MCP-1) reduced. (1) Part of the chiropractic treatment plan at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic is nutrition. The use of chondroitin sulfate is providing benefit that Montreal chiropractic patients may enjoy. 

CHONDROITIN SULFATE: Diabetic Osteoporosis

In another trial of oral chondroitin sulfate and whether it has anti-diabetic properties, chondroitin sulfate was taken for 2 months. Preventive properties were demonstrated. It improved the symptoms of diabetes by increasing body weight, decreasing water or food intake, lowering blood glucose, increasing bone mineral density (BMD), repairing bone morphology and reducing femoral osteoclasts. These benefits initiated the researchers to write that chondroitin sulfate could prevent diabetic osteoporosis through decreasing blood glucose along with antioxidative stress, anti-inflammation, and regulation of serum levels of OPG/RANKL. In summary, they stated that chondroitin sulfate can capably prevent bone loss triggered by diabetes.
